This is a museum that is long on history but short on artifacts. As a history buff, I thought that the museum was interesting enough to justify a visit. Various aspects of westward expansion were considered with a rather unusual format--small sculptures are used to create scenes, each of which is augmented by placards describing the scenes and containing quotes from those people (e.g. Lewis and Clark) who lived at that time and were involved in that aspect of our nations history. Now this is okay if you have the patience to do a lot of reading; if not, then this museum might not be for you.

This is our go to place for walking the dog, hiking, playing Pokemon Go, and hopefully finding some morel mushrooms when it gets a bit warmer. The newly remodeled Trails Center has fascinating displays and dioramas of Lewis and Clarks exploration and much more.

It was worth the time. We should not forget hi story and the toughness, determination, faith & will to survive that those who settled the west possessed. I wish it had a gift shop or a small bookstore.

This is a great museum for this area in the past. It has a very nice interior. Then over the river levee is a forested area with a lake that has some walking and bike trails.

The center is cool and very informative what is but what is most interesting is the trails and activities that are outside
